RDE - Regional Disability & Seniors Expo Cairns

Finding the right disability and ageing support shouldn’t feel overwhelming — yet for many families across regional Australia, navigating services, funding changes, and evolving policies can be challenging, particularly when metropolitan resources aren’t readily available.

The Regional Disability Expo (RDE) was created to bridge this gap. Founded by Sharon, a mother of three whose lived experience navigating disability support highlighted the need for clearer pathways, RDE exists to make connections easier — bringing trusted providers, products, and services together in one accessible place.

More than an event, RDE is a practical starting point. Whether you’re navigating the NDIS, exploring assistive technologies, planning for ageing support, or simply seeking reliable information, the Expo connects individuals, families, and carers with the people and solutions that matter.

In response to community feedback, RDE has expanded to include comprehensive aged care and seniors support, recognising that support needs evolve across life stages and are often interconnected. This inclusive approach ensures families can access relevant information, guidance, and services — all under one roof.
